Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un système de communication mobile qui permet de faire fonctionner une pluralité de nœuds de zone locale et de les agencer avec une grande flexibilité. Selon l'invention, une valeur dans laquelle la qualité de transmission de la liaison d'accès radio terrestre sans fil d'une cellule de desserte est prise en compte, est utilisée en tant que la valeur de seuil de début de la mesure (S_intrasearch_total) pour une resélection de cellules. Au cours d'une étape (ST1401), un terminal mobile (71) compare la valeur de seuil de début de la mesure (S_intrasearch_total) à la valeur de mesure de la puissance de réception (Sx) de la cellule de desserte. Si Sx est inférieure ou égale à S_intrasearch_total, il est déterminé que la qualité de réception de la cellule de desserte comprenant la qualité de transmission de la liaison d'accès radio terrestre sans fil est mauvaise et, au cours d'une étape (ST1302), la mesure en vue d'une resélection de cellule est initiée.
